HOW YOU GET HEAD LICE?

More than 90% of lice come from head to head contact with an infested person (hair touching hair)

·         Sharing items like brushes, hair accessories, dress up clothes, hats, or helmets

·         Children working together in small spaces where heads touch

·         Hugs (don’t give up hugging, just be proactive)

·         Cloth seats in the movie theater, on a bus, train, or plane (unlikely though as only about 2% of lice are from the environment)

Lice do not know how wealthy you are or how busy you are.  But they do know how sweet you are.  Be proactive by doing weekly head checks with a comb on your children until college!  And use The Nit Nanny Mint Spray to prevent lice from showing up in the first place.  If you happen to get lice let one of our Lice Lifters Treatment Centers get rid of the lice for you.
